Yo, yo, yo, I'm tired of the, 'he say, she say
Why every time they get mad, man we pay?
She wanna act like the judge and the jury
The police, F.B.I. and the C.I.A., all in one
And now it's me she tryin' to convict
She better show me some DNA and fingerprints
She better show me the name of the one that snitched
Matter fact, right now I'ma plead the fifth
She said you tried to fuck her
She's a motherfuckin' liar
Boy please, no way, whatever, not me
Yeah you, man she's just hatin'
She said you met her last summer

Take it to the grave, I'ma take it to the grave
I'ma take it to the grave, take it to the grave
Take it to the grave, I'ma take it to the grave
She said, she did what with who? She wrong
Since she knows so much, ask her what I had on
True Religion, Air Jordan, Ed Hardy
C'mon ma, that's e'ry nigga in the party
But I was at the studio perfectin' my hustle
With Ky', Murph' and Mo just finishin' Brass Knuckles
Now with all these purses, fur coats, fly whips
I done bought for you, now you still believe any chick
She said you tried to fuck her
She's a motherfuckin' liar
Boy please, no way, whatever, not me
Yeah you, man she's just hatin'
She said you met her last summer

Take it to the grave, I'ma take it to the grave
3:24, when I walk in the do'
Phone on loud, what it do that fo'?
And she said she went down south, all in my texts
6:30 in the mornin' got this loud ass message
I ain't even do it though, mama girl lyin'
You tried to fuck her, I ain't even had time
Ask her where she know me from, who I be with?
What number she dial? That crazy girl wild
She said you tried to fuck her
She's a motherfuckin' liar
Boy please, no way, whatever, not me
Yeah you, man she's just hatin'

Take it to the grave, I'ma take it to the grave
I really don't know her, I seen her on MySpace
Looked at her page, all I seen was my face
Her user name read, Kyjuan fo' life
With videos and pictures, set up so right
The only bad thing is, she writes me all night
Sayin' shit like The 'Tics is so tight
She isn't with I love you, that starts the big fight
Baby, I can't control what she types, believe me
She said you tried to fuck her
She's a motherfuckin' liar

Yeah you, fellas what we gon' do? What?
Take it to the grave? What? Take it to the grave
Take it to the grave, I'ma take it to the grave
I'ma take it to the grave, take it to the grave
I don't mean to be bitter
But I'll hurt if you call
Telling me you landed on your feet, after all
Now your bedroom eyes are looking tired
My baby has your sparkle died
You smile
But all the while your heart
Hardens up
With a cry
You're good at living out a lie
You know you're giving out a lie
You're always living out a lie
You know you're giving out a lie
I kissed your mind
While on the run
Once more I've been too near the sun
You filled the role
And love was hot
I watch the tv
Weeping now
It numbs my passions
Sleeping now
Some opera shallow drama
Fills up my life
And I ask myself why
I'm good at living out a lie
You know I'm giving out a lie
I'm always living out a lie
You know I'm giving out a lie
The poison barely passed our lips
The words are threads
The truth that never should be said
Friends can go between
Each pouring fuel upon the fire
The spider weaves her web
Of honesty and lies
But I need the pain
To feel alive
A twisted reason
To survive
I'll say I hate you
And with all of my heart
I will try
Oh god
Its just another lie
Its just another lie
Its just another lie
Its just another lie
It wasn't always cruel like this
Our dreams were chiffon and cerise
But promises made off our heads
Daybreak
At the bottom of lake
It's a hundred degrees i can't breathe
And i won't get out
'til i figure it out
Though i'm weak like i can't believe
So you tell me 'trust me' l can trust you
Just let me show you
But i gotta work it out in a shadow of doubt
'cause i don't know if i know you
Doing fine but don't waste my time
Tell me what it is you want to say
You sin, you win, just let me in - hurry
I've been out in the rain all day
So you tell me 'trust me' i can trust you
As far as i can throw you
And i'm trying to get out of a shadow of doubt
'cause i don't know if i know you
[chorus:]
Don't tell me you wanted me
Don't tell me you thought of me
I won't, i swear i won't
(did)
I'll try, i swear i'll try
(lie)
Mother mary quite contrary
Kiss the boys and make them wary
Things are getting just a little bit scary
It's a wonder i can still breathe
Never been much of a doubting thomas
But nothing breaks like a broken promise
You tell me 'bout your two more coming
But once is just enough for me
[chorus]
I had gotten used to being a soul destroyed
She comes in apparently to fill the void
All dogs need a leash and
At least i'll forget it
And she would never hurt me though
She's never said it
But i'm not gonna ask her today
I don't wanna scare her away
Your town, i'm all alone
And i just can't stare at the phone
I wanna talk about lifelong mistakes
You don't wanna see my face again
You don't even wanna say my name
You don't wanna hear a word from me
There is nothing to explain
You will not forgive me
You will not forget
You believe that its all over
You hate me, you hate me more and more
You say there's no fire burning in your heart
You don't need me its over its over
You don't feel no pain
There is nothing left
You don't love me its over over
Lie lie lie lie say you lie
Lie lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie lie say you lie
Lie lie lie lie lie
Say you think that what we had is through
It will never be the same again
And no matter what I say or do
It will never stop the rain
You will not forgive me
You will not forget
You believe that its all over
You hate me, you hate me more and more
You say there's no fire burning in your heart
You don't need me its over its over
You don't feel no pain
There is nothing left
You don't love me its over over
Lie lie lie lie say you lie
Lie lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie lie say you lie
Couldn't you let it lie?
With a smile and subterfuge
you dances your savage dance
some hidden cause you cannot justyfy
a lie's a lie
Couldn't you let it lie
Couldn't you let it lie
Conscience clear and sanctified
you wash yooursins away
in god's name you start your holy war
who's it for?
Couldn't you let it lie?
Couldn't you let it lie?
Couldn't you let it lie?
Couldn't you let it lie?
I don't feel much like talking to you tonight
I'd rather not let you twist my words around again until they
give you something to feel
I would rather keep my distance, thank you very much
What do you want? Do you want my apologies?
Do you want me to tell you I'm wrong? Because I won't
I won t feed your melodrama and I won t be a part of your game
But thank you very much
Please fix your own lie before you start attacking mine
You can call me your friend if that s the kind of security that you need
We all look for it in different ways
Just don't persecute me, thank you very much
Please fix your own lie before you start attacking mine
don't you see that I will be all that you want me to be
don't you see that I will be all that you envisioned me to be
But I refuse to be raped
Until I confess all that you want me to hear
Then consoled and told that it will be alright
Because it s not all right, I don't have the energy and I don't
have the strength
To take on your emotional weight
You whispered that you were getting tired,
Got a look in your eye,
Looks a lot like goodbye.
Hold on to your secrets tonight.
Don't want to know I'm ok with this silence
It's truth that I don't want to hear
You're hiding regret in your smile
There's a storm in your eyes I've seen coming for awhile
Hold on to the past tense tonight
Don't say a word,
I'm ok with the quiet.
The truth is gonna change everything.
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart,
Look me in the eye,
Lie, lie, lie.
Lie, lie, lie.
I know that there's no turning back.
If we put too much light on this we'll see through all the cracks.
Let's stay in the dark one more night.
Don't want to know I'm ok with the silence.
It's truth that I don't want to hear.
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
So look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.
Don't want to believe in this ending
Let the cameras roll on,
Keep pretending
Tomorrow's all wrong if you walk away
Just stay
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.
So lie to me and tell me that we're gonna be ok
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the day
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
You talk to me you talk to my eyes
You talk to me while in your disguise
You say the things that I want to hear
You never say it too clear
It doesn't matter because when you leave
You'll think about the ways to deceive
Forget about the things you believe
Remember lies you conceived
Lie - you live a lie
A fucking lie, your life's a lie
Then their are all the promises they make
Devotion and their word is so fake
Ever-changing and inconsistent
True self so distant
Are you really even in there?
Does it matter do you even care?
Ego grown you now believe
But you're the one that's deceived
Lie - you live a lie
A fucking lie, your life's a lie
Liar - Liar -You lie
Nothing matters but for you to cover the lie
Can't explain your reasons so you just have to deny
Think of all the people that now know
that you're full of shit
All the pieces of your life will never fit
Lie to me
Make me see
All that truth
You believe
I was led
Lies were fed
Nothing left
Truth is dead
Lie - you live a lie
A fucking lie, your life's a lie
If there was only light
If there was only dark
Would you see it?
Would you believe it?
If there was only time
If there was only love
Would you notice?
Would you lie to learn?
Your lie was true
You knew that you could only go down
You lied to me
Like someone I didn?t know
Hide your way
Lie, you say it for, say it for you and I
For you and I
If there was only me
If there was only you
Could it fool you?
Would you see right through?
If there was only time
Only your life
Would you care so much?
Would you lie to learn?
Your lie was true
You knew that you could only go down
You lied to me
Like someone I didn?t know
Hide your way
Lie, you say it for, say it for you and I
For you and I
Hide your way
Lie, you say it for, say it for you and I
For you and I
Mornin' feels like a drag when you're all messed up
Ain't got nobody to pick you up
And your phone gonna ring like it used to do
All those you thought, your friends
Well, they turned on you, oh
Like a stone, you flown your life
To turns of fancy and of flight
It's a lie, it's a lie
So you believe what they say
With all their gilded praise
You string up your accolades
They string up your veins
They like to push you up
But they won't let you go
They keep a tight, keep a tight
Keep a tight hold on you
Just to let you know
That they'll always be your lover
And they will never know the crime
It's a lie
Break me down to blood and grit
It's a lie
A monkey blood and junkie spit
It's a lie
Elevate my pedestal
It's a lie
Touch me, baby
Does anybody want me?
Feel me, baby
I still got that same old feeling
Burning inside
Hear me now
Does anybody hear me?
Remember me, yeah
Remember me
Remember me, yeah
And you think back to the time
When you never ever could get too high
It's a lie
Break me down to blood and grit
It's a lie
A monkey blood and junkie spit
It's a lie
Elevate my pedestal
It's a lie
I want to take you higher
Bring me down
I want to take you higher
Bring me down
I want to take you higher
Bring me down
I want to take you higher
Bring me down
I want to take you higher
Bring me down
The same thing that makes you laugh
Can make you cry
The same thing you eat to live
Can make you die
I'm living a lie
And it's not the best thing for me
But anyone and everyone is gonna hear another story
I'm building a house
Of murderous intention
To keep it all from coming down
I've gotta focus my attention
'cause confidence is key
When violating trust
I'm making sure that I believe
I'm doing what I must
Which is attempting to kill
The little boy inside
But as hard as I try...
The child will not die
Now I'm burning alive, just like you
I'm irrelevant
And I'm living down in the shit
I follow these pigs around
But I never get used to it
'cause they keep building and building
Their feculant franchise
I wish I could see this filth
From someone else's eyes
'cause ignorance was bliss
But now I must adjust
These animals, they operate
On jealousy and lust
I'm taking back what was lost
And I will not be denied
I'm crawling my way to the surface outside
Wind blow away your tears, seasons also follow suit
Let go everything and leave the painful piece of
memories here
Let go everything and leave it here, i'm forcing myself
Let's say goodbye here. I will understand
The loving past (that side view)
Used to describe about tomorrow (slim fingers)
Having an unreachable future
Love is gone. The heart is also gone. The days that we
were in love are gone.
Can only lie repeatedly
Want to forget your name, but still can't forget
Gone but not all are gone
Let go everything and leave it here, i'm forcing myself
Let's say goodbye here. I will understand
The loving past (that side view)
Used to describe about tomorrow (slim fingers)
Having an unreachable future
Crying and fighting back the tears repeatedly for days
Destroyed but not destroyed yet. Thinking of becoming
stronger
Crying and more crying, tomorrow will be better
Cry until the tears are dried
The loving past (that side view)
Used to describe about tomorrow (slim fingers)
Having an unreachable future
Crying and fighting back the tears repeatedly for days
Destroyed but not destroyed yet. Thinking of becoming
stronger
Crying and more crying, tomorrow will be better
Cry until the tears are dried
The loving past (that side view)
Used to describe about tomorrow (slim fingers)
Having an unreachable future
Forward, let's walk forward and continue the glory
forever
Forget, let's forget everything, it will be alright if
it's you
Gone, my in love days are gone
Forward, let's walk forward and I won't forget you
Well, I've been swinging through these swinging doors for, aww, goin' on probably about 9 years now, maybe even 10
I watch old Joe at the end of the bar with another hot woman on his one good arm and they walk out for a while and he
Comes back in smilin', again
So I finally had to ask old Joe, "Man, what's your secret to success, your power of
Persuasion
Over the opposite sex"
And he says, "Son, well, honestly, it's pretty simple." He said, "I just kinda walk up and buy her
Drink and open up my mouth and...
Chorus 1: Lie
I tell her I'm a movie star
I just flew into town to buy this bar
Only here tonight, that's right
I gotta go, yeah, we're filming on location down in Mexico
Would you believe that I
The leading role?
That's right, honey, I beat out a lot of folks that you'd probably know."
Oh, a man has got to do
What a
Man's gotta do
Anything it takes to make her think you're cool
Ah, you got nothing to lose, so go on and try
Just
Walk
Right up and smile and look her dead in the eye
And lie
That's right lie
So I tried and tried a couple weekends and
Was like strike 1, strike 2, strike out again
But I narrowed it down, and I scratched it out, and I came up with
Something
That without a doubt I knew, I was gonna make old Joe proud
And I go up and I'd say
Hi Honey, whatcha doing for the
Rest of your life
I've been waiting such a long, long time
And you know what honey?
Meetin' you here, man, it just
Really feels like fate
Oh I, I bet you didn't see me as a marrying type
Let's take it slow I don't just want one
Night, oh no
Darlin'
If you're looking for that you might as well look somewhere else
Well, because I'm just not that kind of guy
Kids, oh I love kids
Dogs, in-laws, and a piece of land
Dirty diapers in my mini van
Aw man, I can hardly wait
Oh a
Man has got to do what a man's gotta do
Anything it takes to make her think you're cool
Aw, you got nothin' to lose so
Go on and try
Just walk right up, and smile, and look her dead in the eye
You know what you got to do, lie
That's
Right
You gotta lie
preachers, leaders, writers, teachers
friends and lovers, you and i
everyone a liar
and everything a lie
all of this will fall
fade away or burn
all of this will fall
Walk with me down the path of my destruction
Here I am alone waiting for you to come with me
Are you afraid of what you might learn about
The life you've destroyed not thinking of what might be
WHY, WHY, WHY
I'm what you wanted
I'm what you wanted
I'm what you wanted don't lie to me
I'm what you wanted
I'm what you wanted
I'm what you wanted don't lie to me
Left me here alone destroyed the heart I have given you
Emptiness inside is all I have left for now
Why did you run can't deny the feelings you have for me
Betrayed by this life understanding this fallen love we have
WHY, WHY, WHY
I'm what you wanted
I'm what you wanted
I'm what you wanted don't lie to me
I'm what you wanted
I'm what you wanted
Daybreak

Mother Mary quite contrary
Kiss the boys and make them wary
Things are getting just a little bit
scary
It's a wonder I can still breathe
Never been much of a doubting Thomas
but nothing breaks like a broken promise
You tell me 'bout your two more coming

I don't wanna scare her away
Your town, I'm all alone
and I just can't stare at the phone
I wanna talk about lifelong mistakes
Guess we're back from scratch now
I don't need a hit again
Tell me what's the plan now, is it too much to comprehend
Could it be that easy
To catch the plane
Catch the plane
Would I lie to you?
Could it be enough to understand,
That we're back to reality
You know sometimes, anytime, words can fuck it up more
We'll fuck it up more
I think you lost your freedom
To learn to play the game
Well can I ask a question
Rather burn and fade away
In the rainy season, would you do the same?
Catch that train
Would I lie to you?
Could it be enough to understand, that we're back to reality
You know sometime, anytime, words can fuck it up more
We'll fuck it up more
Back to reality
As I walk in the room, amusingly...
You all turn to silence
I sense anger in the air, animosity,
Potential for violence
The warm welcome falls short, chillingly,
Determination flows through me
If conflict's what you seek,
I won't turn the other cheek,
I'll take you on
Always rallying support, innocently, pleading the victim
Twisting my words to suit, deceitfully,
Your shame has no limits
Won't play the game, to save your pride
You couldn't change and lived a lie
Oh the shame, inbred your life, you're whose to blame
You lived a lie
See the writing on the wall, obviously
You're losing the battle
Sense just cannot prevail, inside of you
Darkness conquers all
Won't play the game, to save your pride
You couldn't change and lived a lie
Oh the shame, inbred your life, you're whose to blame
Surrounded by the fear
Ashamed by the truth
Whisper in my ear
Makes me think about myself
Living in the lies
Now that the trust is gone
Drained by the tears
Caused by the pain in my heart
Do you trust yourself?
Don't you trust me.
Shatter by all these lies
Surrounded by the fear
Ashamed by the truth again
Whisper in my ear
Makes me think about myself
The strength of your thoughts
Will guide you along
The foolish path of your feeble mind.
(Verse 1)
I wish I could hide my face
Put it away for eighty days
Then reappear with out a trace
I want to take the memories
Throw them in a winter sea
Because they remind of your mistakes
(Pre-Chorus)
And it kills me to know that we
could have been something
And it kills me to know that you
were my best friend.
(CHORUS)
You were a lie
from the beginning
You were a lie
from the start
You were a lie
that kept on sinning
You were the lie
that captured my heart
(VERSE 2)
You were the liar, I was the fool
Knowing the truth but being so cruel
You out of all knew the rules
Stripping me from my sanity
Painting your picture for all to see
But now I'm not yours to please
(Pre-Chorus)
And it kills me to know that we
could have been something
And it kills me to know that you
were my best friend.
(CHORUS)
You were a lie
from the beginning
You were a lie
from the start
You were a lie
that kept on sinning
You were the lie
that captured my heart
(BRIDGE)
I hope you're happy that you made me cry
I hope you're happy that you made my joy die
I hope you're happy that you tore me apart
I wanted the truth, was that too difficult?
(CHORUS)
You were a lie
from the beginning
You were a lie
from the start
You were a lie
that kept on sinning
You were the lie
that captured my heart
I saw you in your fancy car in your fancy clothes ONE BIG LIE.
From the twenty first floor you can see nothing at all.
I saw you the other day I couldn't help GOING OTHER WAY.
I don't want to be dead in the age of twenty-eight.
They gave you a choice you didn't care it’s was false.
You could be anyone, anyone they want you to be.
And you eat this cheese you mouse in a trap
and you swallow their pills but you think it's not so bad.
You said you could still be yourself from 10 p.m.
till the time you go to bed.
Today...
Today is the day your career collapsed...
You have nothing to hold on to.
Now what you gonna do? WHAT?
Sold your soul to the corporation.
No surprise mind the education.
Is this the only thing we have achieved in 15 years?
Now we are free to let the market make us slaves?
And people were fighting just to let us digging our graves?
Do we really have to be another United States?
